Best Books of 2020-2022
These are my favourite books that I’ve read over the past 3 years, since I started keeping a record of what I’ve been reading. I’ve gone for some separation of categories to make it easier to peruse.
Special Categories
These authors are separated from the other lists because their work is so consistently good (to my taste), that they would otherwise dominate my lists.
